Open Source Software Country Intelligence to provide insights on all EU Member States in the domain of OSS policies and initiatives

The country intelligence will be presented in two formats: a short report with an overview of policies and existing legal frameworks throughout the Member States as well as open source software initiatives, and a fact sheet visually complementing the report. Once the analysis of all 28 countries is completed, a comprehensive study will be performed to spot trends and strengths throughout the European Union and to share best practices.

The study on open source software policies will consist of the following chapters:
* General context of open source software policies in Public Administration
* Actors
* Policy and legal framework
* Open source software initiatives at all levels of Government

So far Belgium, Italy, Portugal, Slovakia, and Sweden have information published.
